Injury Management and Prevention Course

On Tuesday, 15 May, the Claremont District Office hosted an "Injury Management and Prevention" course for all Junior Football Club coaches in the district. Eight clubs sent representatives for a total of over thirty participants. The course included a two hour presentation and demonstration session from physiotherapists Anthony McEvoy and Jon Barrett. Both physiotherapists not only work at the Lifecare Physiotherapy Cottesloe and Claremont but they also work as the physiotherapists for the Claremont Football club. They began the session by explaining techniques to manage players' acute injuries such as sprained ankles, nose bleeds, and cramps. This was followed by a question and answer session before the second part of the presentation began.
